“You don't need treatment. The fever, inflammation, coughing, etc., constitute the healing process. Just get out of their way and permit them to complete their work. Don't try to 'aid' nature. She doesn't need your puny aid—she only asks that you cease interfering.”
― Herbert M. Shelton, Getting Well

“Dar câtă nevoie aveam să fiu fericită! De unde să știu că fericirea nu e euforia, vârtejul, beția, senzualitatea difuză, camuflată în atâtea învelișuri poleite de o poezie falsă?!”
― Cella Serghi, Pânza de păianjen

“There are betrayals in war that are childlike compared with our human betrayals during peace. The new lovers enter the habits of the other. Things are smashed, revealed in a new light. This is done with nervous or tender sentences, although the heart is an organ of fire.”

“Well, sir, embrace me once, as you would embrace your daughter, and I swear to you that that kiss, the only chaste kiss I have ever had, will make me strong against my love, and that within a week your son will be once more at your side, perhaps unhappy for a time, but cured forever.”
― Alexandre Dumas-fils, La dame aux camélias
